Make It Scream, Make It Burn
'Intelligent, compassionate, and so fiercely, prodigiously brave. This is the essay at its creative, philosophical best' Eleanor Catton, author of The Luminaries on THE EMPATHY EXAMS A profound exploration of the oceanic depths of longing and obsession, Make It Scream, Make It Burn is a book about why and how we tell stories. It takes the reader deep into the lives of strangers - from a woman healed by the song of 'the loneliest whale in the world' to a family convinced their child is a reincarnation of a lost pilot - and asks how we can bear witness to the changing truths of other's lives while striving to find a deeper connection to the complexities of our own.

Visionary Philology
This book-length study of the poetry and critical writing of Geoffrey Hill, one of the major post-war writers in English, combines nuanced and incisive close reading with detailed scholarship and fresh archival work. Hill's work is examined in relation to the history of language and of the study of language, with key chapters dedicated to the linguistic ideas of the Oxford English Dictionary and its founder, Richard Chenevix Trench, and of scholar-poets GerardManley Hopkins and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The final two chapters consider the basis for a poetic theology of language founded in the myths of linguistic fallenness and original sin. In the range of itsattention and the depth of its scholarship, this book represents one of the fullest and most authoritative accounts of the work of a living writer in recent years.

The Gin Closet
From the author of the New York Times bestselling essay collection The Empathy Exams and the memoir The Recovering, Leslie Jamison’s “exquisitely beautiful” (San Francisco Chronicle) novel about three generations of women and the inescapable brutality of love. As a young woman, Tilly flees home for the hollow underworld of Nevada, looking for pure souls and finding nothing but bad habits. One day, after Tilly has spent nearly thirty years without a family, drinking herself to the brink of death, her niece Stella—who has been leading her own life of empty promise in New York City—arrives on the doorstep of Tilly’s desert trailer. The Gin Closet unravels the strange and powerful intimacy that forms between them. With an uncanny ear for dialogue and a witty, unflinching candor about sex, love, and power, Leslie Jamison reminds us that no matter how unexpected its turns, the life we’re given is all we have: the cruelties that unhinge us, the beauties that clarify us, the addictions that deform us, those fleeting possibilities of grace that fade as quickly as they come. The Gin Closet marks the debut of a stunning new talent in fiction.
